This special election is especially relevant given the balance of power in the House. It's one of 4 open seats at a time when Republicans hold a five-vote margin.

There was just 1 debate.
Joe Hathaway was endorsed by many Republicans & campaigned as a moderate who does not always agree with Trump. Many unions and pro-democracy orgs and Dem leaders endorsed @analiliafornj.bsky.social, a progressive who calls for abolishing ICE

Tough talk from @AnaliliaForNJ in her victory speech in NJ CD 11 www.njspotlightnews.org
In NJ, it's Rebecca Bennett in CD7 & Adam Hamawy in CD12. Hamawy all but certain to win the blue district. Bennett has a tough fight ahead to unseat incumbent Republican Tom Kean Jr. In her victory speech, she called Kean a "coward."
